SSC GD Constable (English) - 31 Jan 2023 - Shift 2 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q51

The least multiple of 7, which leaves a remainder of 4, when divided by 6, 9, 15, and 18 is:

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. 364.

LCM (6, 9, 15 and 18) = 90

⇒ x = 7K

The number that is divisible by 90 and leaves the remainder 4 must be greater than 90.

When we put K = 13, x = 91 (gives remainder = 1)

Similarly, put K = 52, x = 364 (gives remainder = 4)

Hence, Required number = 364
